Watching our parents suffer in careers that didn’t bring them fulfillment. Understanding now that they didn’t see that they had a choice. All this while negotiating the contours of immigration, trauma, and poverty. 

We’re trained to be quiet, to be accommodating, to be productive. We’re taught not to trust ourselves, to live for others, to delay our joy. In short, we’re taught to betray ourselves. 

Today feels different.

A personal note — I believe we all have a role to play no matter what we choose in life. Everything and anything we do must be impactful because ultimately our presence does leave a footprint. It is a privilege to work honestly for the community I exist in. 

 

It is my intention to push the boundaries of authenticity with intersectional work towards creating an empowering space.
